1. I've done that. I've also used dowels and closet pole

Poverty, not necessity, is the mother of invention.

2. I didn't know conduit was so inexpensive.

3. It's dirt cheap but you need to buy hooks to support it

because it's also very bendy.

7. i think it cost less than $20

he used his drill with a 'door set' drill attachment to cut notches in two 2x4s that were scrap from other projects.

we got steel rings and steel 's' hooks which he closed on end of over the rings, slid them on and stuck it above the window.

I have added more over the years but it's still my favorite 'design on a dime' thing in my kitchen. and in a small kitchen, it freed up so much space in my cabinets that i needed for other things.
